I got there at 2pm to set up (show started at 5), and at 2:15, rain started to pour, so I sat in my car (err, took a nap in my car) until about 4:30 when it ended.. The rain made way for a beautiful but chilly evening. Of course, by the time I was totally set up, the show was halfway over, but it was a great night anyway. My first sale was my &#8220;Night Class&#8221; paper cutting which is one of my favorites that I had made for the Topeka Public Library exhibit &#8212; so happy to see it go to a good home. Parting with my own artwork was an idea that took me awhile to grasp when I first started doing these shows, but it&#8217;s pretty amazing to see people excited about having it in their own homes. Another long Saturday ahead with open hours from 10am &#8211; 9pm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ruralpearl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/raintent.jpg\" alt=\"raintent\" title=\"raintent\" width=\"470\" height=\"351\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ruralpearl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/raintent.jpg 470w, https:\/\/ruralpearl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/raintent-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 470px) 100vw, 470px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Friday was the first day of my 3 day show at Art Westport in Kansas City.
